What are the “Classics” anyway?
For most, the Classics is a general term used to describe a group of races taking place in late March through early May. While the specific list of races is open to debate, most use the term in reference to Milan-San Remo, the Tour of Flanders (Ronde van Vlaanderen), Ghent-Wevelgem, the Amstel Gold Race, Fleche Read the full article…
RBC in the books
Just got back from Redlands where the RideClean Team pinned up and suffered alongside 197 of their closest friends. Only 105 finishers mind you as Jonny’s buddy Jeff Louder spanked all comers. That was hard as shit…all I did was drive the car and I’m spent. Below — in the start house on Thursday… Always Read the full article…
Monday is as Monday does
Monday is as Monday does. Yeah. Not much. Reading ain’t going so well today. And, mind you, it’s not yet eleven in the morning. I put up a little something in the comment section an hour or so ago, and it went and led to a whole post. Go figure. Just about everything you need Read the full article…
A poem by any other name…
…is still a poem. Found this one last week and thought I’d share. You know, because I can. Handymen By Cornelius Eady The furnace wheezes like a drenched lung. You can’t fix it.

Let ‘em fail…
by ‘them’ i mean the big 3. Seriously. If they tried to make a better car, they wouldn’t be in this mess. I have sympathy for all the workers who are getting canned, losing their pensions, having factories shut down… But fuck the Big 3. They chose to stick with a post WW2, ‘American Dream’ Read the full article…
Domo arigato, Pippo Pozatto…
“Would you describe, in your own words, what happened?” “Bro… was ON! Didn’t trip. But the folks was freakin’, Man. Hey, and the pilots were laid to the bone, Holmes.” I couldn’t have said it better myself.
Hamfist Weighs a Ton… well not really
Hammy, still crushing it!!!
Mini Phinney is a world champ.
I mean, seriously, with parents by the name of Connie Carpenter-Phinney, and Davis Phinney, the genetics there are amazing. Add 2 great bike racers together, and out pops this kid, who at 18, is an elite world champion on the track. I’d say, that’s some pretty good work right there over in Poland. It’s been Read the full article…

Maybe Lance is like us?
Someone got a little boozy on the plane ride back from Spain. Old Mr. Armstrong, living it up on the ride back to get his busted collarbone fixed up had a little extra drinky drink on the way back, and got cut off (apparently), and then passed out. Good times for all I’m sure. This, Read the full article…
